Drama School Alum conquering theater scene

Playwright’s elusive dream: Conquering his hometown of Miami
BY CHRISTINE DOLEN, Miami Herald 6/12/2009

Though it has only been two years since he earned his master’s degree in playwriting from the Yale School of Drama, McCraney has had his work produced in New York, Washington D.C., Seattle, New Orleans, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, London, Barcelona and Dublin.
